section 279 of indian penal code is compoundable if injure is ready to settle the matter. Since you are the complainant in this case and if you want to withdraw the matter you have to give a statement before the magistrate that you dont want to proceed with the matter. And what ever damages you are claiming you have to make an application to moter accident claim tribunal.
